Edie was only trying to cheer her up after Polecat Mac said how terrible Kay's voice was (and it's not good). Talent judges can be pretty cruel, and the audiences even worse. Will Kay blame Edie for her humiliation? Will their friendship even survive? <p/> Horace and Nim try to help out, but things look pretty grim for the well-meaning duck. <p/> This latest book in the Horace & Nim series is another gem, beautifully illustrated by Chantal Bourgonje, with a heart-warming story of friendship that children and parents alike will enjoy.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Chantal Bourgonje </b> is a Dutch illustrator and writer of picture books, working from the Wiltshire countryside, where she lives with her partner and two Whippets.
